Question on PHP Engine or change on legal moves[Subject Thread] [Add Response]

Something changed maybe about 2 to 4 weeks ago.  Let's say we have a game that shows legal moves.  I am on the white side, and it is my turn.  When I click a piece I get a gray square and blue squares that show legal moves.   Great.  I now move my piece.  I am now ready to confirm.  In the past, I could click on a black piece and see it's legal moves before I hit the confirm button.  This ability has disappered.  (maybe on purpose?).

Thanks for mentioning that. I had forgotten about this ability, and I inadvertently introduced a bug that got rid of it. I have now restored it.

Hi, your bug fix helped, but I am being really fussy now!  A pop-up comes up in CONFIRM MODE saying "Showing Legal moves for <piece> you cannot actually move in view or preview mode Click OK to hide legal moves.  In certain situations a checkbox comes up saying "Prevent this page from creating additional dialogs."   If you click that  checkbox - Legal moves (on your enemy pieces) appears to me to get completely disabled."  

No, I do not want that. 

In the past, I was able in confirm mode to click several enemy pieces and see the enemy piece moves without the pop-up.

Okay, that's now fixed. Thanks for reminding me how it was supposed to work.
